A professor would like to test the hypothesis that the average number of minutes that a student needs to complete a statistics exam has a standard deviation that is less than 5.0 minutes. A random sample of 15 students was selected and the sample standard deviation for the time needed to complete the exam was found to be 4.0 minutes. Using α = 0.05, the conclusion for this hypothesis test would be that because the test statistic is

The degrees of freedom are given by:

The p value for this case would be given by:

Since the p value is higher than the significance level we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true deviation is not ignificantly lower than 5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

represent the sample size

represent the confidence level  

represent the sample variance

represent the value that we want to  verify

System of hypothesis

We want to test if the true deviation for this case is lesss than 5minutes, so the system of hypothesis would be:

Null Hypothesis:

Alternative hypothesis:

The statistic is given by:

And replacing we got:

The degrees of freedom are given by:

The p value for this case would be given by:

Since the p value is higher than the significance level we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true deviation is not ignificantly lower than 5 minutes

answer

explanation

the area of a circle is calculated using the formula

or

we can use any of the above formulae to calculate the required. preferably, let us use the latter since the diameter is

we substitute the diameter into the formula to get:

this is the exact value for the area of the circle.

the correct answer is a

it depends on the weather. because i have flown to seattle when it was pouring down rain and there was one time i flew to ohio when it was snowing hard. whats your situation.
